As I watched Odysseus go through his journey I knew that I, Athena, had to help him. If I didn’t help him through the difficult times then he would have died. Just watching Odysseus at first I though it would be fine but then he was losing his men and falling into bad leadership. So I waited for a while until my father Zeus and my uncle Poseidon did something. I felt that if I stepped in during the wrong time between Odysseus and my uncle then somebody would have gotten hurt. Waiting was the hardest part for me. I knew that Odysseus was struggling and he needed the help from the gods but at that time it wasn’t my burden to step in. After watching what Poseidon did to Odysseus I knew that I needed to help him even though he did hurt Poseidon’s son. After everything kind of calmed down between them that is when I knew I had to go and help Odysseus, which was the one I l0ved. When Odysseus heard the prophecy I had a pretty good feeling he would need some encouragement. When Odysseus lost his men and Zeus helped him get to land that was when I got a plan. Twenty years later I disguised Odysseus as a beggar to help him get closer and closer to his family and his home. I wasn’t sure if it was going to work and I do have to say that I was a little nervous. Odysseus was very good at staying calm and following my plan. He was strong and I’m very proud of him.
